Here is the Notice of Appeal filed by fax on February 5, 2010. I realize it is hard to read but it is the only way I can copy it and redact certain personal information. Basically, based upon my conversations with the Claimant's friend, I asked the Appeal Board to have a rehearing on the issue of the Claimant's mental capacity as an excuse for failure to file a timely request as the Claimant was being treated for mental illness, was homeless, on social services and had a meritorious defense to the claim of misconduct. Certain documentary evidence was also attached and case law was referred to.
